Mug cake simply means cake cooked in a mug. When I first heard of it, 8 years ago, mug cakes were not so popular then. A blogger friend of mine, Yoko from My Pooch Life was very generous to shared her mug cake recipe with me in which I've surprised my ex-boyfriend (now hubby). I can still remember his "shocked" expression. It was priceless! Read about it HERE, in A Great Pleasure.
After so many years, I've decided to make mug cake again. But this time, I've omitted the egg and make a few amendments to the previous recipe. Through a few trials and errors, I've finally came to this perfect recipe for the moistest eggless chocolate mug cake.
This recipe is really super easy and I let my almost 3 years old daughter make this all by herself, except for the last round of whisking which required a more thorough mixed. I am so proud of her!
The mug cake is really moist and chocolatey. The side part of the mug cake has a denser texture, almost like a mudcake. I can't believe this rich, moist & dense cake was made in a microwave and done within 3 minutes. Gonna keep this recipe in my family cooking book!
